Is only me not able to hit the pin dot of the nav bar?
It just vibrates but actually pins only after several tries...

Takes a double tap. Just tap it twice in a row quick

It works.
They changed it from the previous unreleased update.
In prev update it was just a tap...
Double tap is actually much better - no accidental hits.

Still on AQG1, no update yet.

Palm Swipe Screen Capture Not Working

Just noticed that swiping to capture screen not working. It is ON in Advanced Features. Menu button + Power button does do a screen capture however. No change with different launchers.
Can anyone duplicate or recommend a fix? Thanks
Notice same thing it doesn't work
I got mine turned off usually, just turned it on for testing after I saw this thread, and it's working fine in both directions.
Is it not working sometimes? Or not at all?

Well I figured it out for my phone. I have the phone in a Caseology Wavelength case. Swipe Capture doesn't work. When I take the phone out of the case, swipe to capture works. I put the phone into a cheap clear gel case that I first got with the phone and swipe to capture works.. Very strange. Wonder what the case is doing to prevent the function.

Notification Panel Button(What is the button like a slider?)

Hello guys,
After some updates, I noticed a button like a slider on notification panel but it is not active.
I could not slide right side or something like that. It seems fixed button.
What was that?
do a long press on it and it should bring up app info for the app that created it. then just click on the i symbol

that's not a notification. it looks like a tab to bring up a side bar or news service, could be a horizontal homescreen indicator (haven't used tw in years sorry), does it move or stay still ?
to sum up, I don't know sorry

Toast message badly aligned under DQD2

Hello,
Message in toast notification are not correctly aligned (vertically and horizontally). Could you confirm that I am not the only one? ROM : G935FXXU1DQD2_DevBase_v4.1
Maybe linked to ROM or maybe Samsung bug?
Any advice is welcome.
Thx

Are you root?
If you're change this line/value in build.prop
from
ro.sf.lcd_density=480
to
ro.sf.lcd_density=640
This fix mine.

Toast notifications aligning incorrectly since Nougat update on my Samsung S7, can confirm a firmware issue not previously present on a non-rooted device. Spoken with Samsung support who have placed this on their patch list.
I confirm the problem also after the recent update on my Galaxy S7 Edge, seems like a firmware issue.

Last response fixed it for me
change your screen resolution to 1080p, text and display zoom to normal, then reboot your phone. after reboot, restore your display settings and voila. everything goes back to normal.

I have no idea why it is on. I don't use android pay. How do I shut it off? Anyone know why it is on? Anything to do with Android wear 2?
Drop down menu from the top, NFC switch should be there

I have many homescreen screen shots to verify it was never on before today or at least the icon was never there.

You must of accidentally turned it on then.
I leave it on as I have NFC stickers to automate tasks. You can hide status bar icons with System UI Tuner from the Play Store after using a few adb commands.

Anybody received the customizable Google Search widget update?

Hello
I was looking for the customizable Google Search widget update when I first heard the news about it.
I have realized that I am now using much more recent version of the same. .
But I still could not get the overflow menu in the widget to customize it.
Did anyone got luck with that?
I am in the Google app beta and have it

I am not in the beta channel but having even more recent build of the same.
I didn't get any overflow menu to customize it.
Are you using stock launcher ?

Am i using incompatible version ?
I am not getting the overflow menu.
It seems to be tied to the main account on a phone. I just set up my partner's new S8 and the custom option appeared. Not on my S8 or G6. I don't think it's phone specific, but rather tied to an account that has it activated. Very frustrating.
